GREAT TEXAS STORM.
AN UNPRECEDENTED RAIN CAUSES
IMMENSE DAMAGE.
Houses Washed Away-1ron Bridges De-
atroyed and Railroads Washed
Valley Land Inundated.
[By telegraph to tho Dispatch.l

CHICAGO, September Ia Timcs's
special from Morgan, Tex, says: The
hardest rain that ever fell in this
county began Tuesday night and con-
tinued without cessation. The damage
TO farmers in the low valley lands in
every portion of the county IS esti-
mated at thousands Of dollars. The
Tcxas Central and the Gulf, Colorado
and Santa Fe railways are badly dam
aged, and it will be many days before
either of them can move trains. The
following busincss-houses with all the
goods went down Bosque nyer: Sci
lers & Hamilton's dry goods store, Sam
Franks grocery store, NJ. McHail, gro
CERES ) II. Justice, saddle shop An
deison, furniture store, and three cot
ton-giDs. Nine residences were washed
away. Besides these houses, which are
entirely gone, every house in the town
IS damaged. Life is all that many OF
the citizens have left.
At Whitney, twenty-five miles east,
in Hill county, number Of houses
were washed away. AT Meridian a
man, whose name could notbe learned,
was swimming to his house to try and
save some Of the contents. when the
water became tooswiit for his strength,
forcing him into the current and drown
ing him. Between here and Cleburn,
distance OF thirty miles, there are
oiclt washouts on the Santa Fe road.
Three Of the number are the large iron
bridges which span the Nolan river at
different points on the Texas Central
between Morgan and Whitney. Two
large iron bridges which have stood the
storms for years are completely de-
stroyod. Between here and Hico, on
the Central road, thirty-one miles dis
tant. there are eleven bridges washed
away. The loss to the railroad Is oyeI

of the loss in small towns and to the

citation embraces in its membership
one hundred Of the leading members
Of the board, and its objects are to cul-
tivate among its members and the
members of the Board of Trade a high
standard of commercial character also
to secure to them the benefit of united
